Blueish bruising stem ID help

Hey guys, sorry for the pics not being the best quality, but I was wondering if these have psilocybin in them due to the blueish bruising in the stems? If so, which type of shrooms are they? Thanks for the help!

Although the cap is quite slimy and slightly blue on the far right shroom, I don't think they are the same. They were found in a grass field in London, the stems aren't as thick, they have a little nipple on the cap..

Thanks for the input! I'm still not sure, the three on the left have a caramel color on top, but quite pale, not nearly as dark as azurescens.. The one on the far right has a slightly blue top, but that is part of the slime, as it started peeling underneath is a white-grey color.

I think they are an Inocybe.
Do you think you can get more macro pictures in good focus which aren't washed out so badly?

I just picked them an hour ago, so will have to wait a bit for the spore print.. Are there any other identifiers I could provide in the meantime?

I think there are two different species. One is Stropharia and the rest are Inocybe.

Yes I thought that might be the case... Is there any certainty in knowing if the inocybes are psychoactive?

Now you're talking. I'll definitely buy that.

I would say these are of the genus Stropharia. There also all the same species aswell imo.
